I have been listening to a leaked copy of the new Ted Leo & the Pharmacists album called The Brutalist Bricks. I am loving it and you will, too.
Frightened Rabbit "The Winter of Mixed Drinks" - Only had the one listen this morning, but I really liked what I heard.
Got me these just today Bklyn.
I have to admit to having an instant liking for 'The Brutalist Bricks' in particular - i'm on my third listen as i type......'The Mighty Sparrow' (a mighty fine opener), 'Bottled in Cork' and 'Woke Up Near Chelsea' (bit of a 70's feel there) - me likey.
Frightened Rabbit - "The Winter of Mixed Drinks"....Hoots mon, what is it with you and Scottish accents?
Until now they've been a well known 'secret' but this is the album (second listen now) that
will catapult these lads into the big-time. Whilst a bit low-key and too 'Snore Patrol meets R.E.M.' for me to ever
admit to loving; i can appreciate a good band/album when i hear it. This band will blow festival crowds away, with their sound, this Summer. ..... Not too shoddy: it will definitely fall into the "must have" category for many.
